Due to the fact that the city is quite new and was designed by professional planners, it suffers nearly none of the problems faced by older cities. The roads are wide enough, the road system works like a charm, overcrowding is not an issue(even though the city houses such a large population)It is split into four districts: The Buisiness District, the Living District, the Bay District, and the Old City.

Business District

The Business District(or Downtown) of Neo-Carthage is the largest in the Carthaginian Empire, followed by the Karachi, Delhi, and Mumbai Business Districts. Even though it is in the heart of this sprawling city, it usually takes less than an hour to reach the center even from the edges of the city. It is the home of the NCSX, the headquarters of many major companies, and much more. The business district has over 100 skyscrapers, and billions of Credits flow through hands here every day.

Living District

The Living District, known as Tunis, houses over 70 million of the cities residents. Even though it has such a large population, it is such a sprawling area that it barely feels crowded. It is also home to hundreds of skyscrapers, although these are mostly for people to live in. As with other parts of Neo-Carthage, the city is constantly expanding and moving upwards. Literally. In fact, some of the worlds highest sky-scrapers are located here. To make the people of Neo-Carthage as happy as possible, the city planners included many parks for the people to rest and relax in.
